Question

Diagram represents the “central dogma” of molecular biology.
Choose the correct combination of labelling.

• A. a—Protein, b—RNA, c—DNA,
  d—Translation, e—Transcription
• B. a—Transcription, b—Trans1ation,
  c—Protein, d— DNA, e—RNA
• C. a—DNA, b—RNA, c—Protein,
  d—Transcription, e—Translation
• D. a—RNA, b—DNA, c—Protein,
  d—Transcription, e—Translation

Answer 1

The correct option is C a—DNA, b—RNA, c—Protein,

d—Transcription, e—Translation
Central dogma
The central dogma states that genetic information flows in a single direction. According to the central dogma of life -
● DNA (a) is the master copy of genetic information and undergoes replication to form new copies of DNA.
● The gene from DNA is converted into mRNA (b) by transcription (d).
● The RNA is translated into protein (c) by translation (e).


Final answer:
(b) a—DNA, b—RNA,
c—Protein, d—Transcription,
e—Translation
